Jing Zhang; Xiaoning Huo; Hongbo Lv; Jiahua Xu; Xiaofeng Ma – npj Science of Learning, 2025
This study investigated the role of offline consolidation, specifically sleep, in transforming memories strengthened by retrieval practice into stable long-term representations. Forty-eight participants learned weakly associated Chinese word pairs via restudy(RS), retrieval practice with feedback (RP), and retrieval practice without feedback…

Danni Chen; Tao Xia; Ziqing Yao; Lingqi Zhang; Xiaoqing Hu – npj Science of Learning, 2024
People often change their evaluations upon learning about their peers' evaluations, i.e., social learning. Given sleep's vital role in consolidating daytime experiences, sleep may facilitate social learning, thereby further changing people's evaluations. Combining a social learning task and the sleep-based targeted memory reactivation technique,…

Malow; Autism Treatment Network/Autism Intervention Research Network on Physical Health (ATN/AIR-P) Sleep Committee, Contributor – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) report high rates of sleep problems. In 2012, the Autism Treatment Network/Autism Intervention Research Network on Physical Health (ATN/AIR-P) Sleep Committee developed a pathway to address these concerns. Since its publication, ATN/AIR-P clinicians and parents have identified night wakings as a…

Gi-Hwan Shin; Young-Seok Kweon; Seungwon Oh; Seong-Whan Lee – npj Science of Learning, 2025
Sleep is crucial for memory consolidation, underpinning effective learning. Targeted memory reactivation (TMR) can strengthen neural representations by re-engaging learning circuits during sleep. However, TMR protocols overlook individual differences in learning capacity and memory trace strength, limiting efficacy for difficult-to-recall…

Pasquale Cardellicchio; Sara Borgomaneri – npj Science of Learning, 2025
The consolidation process stabilizes a new initially labile memory. This consolidation could operate on a shorter timescale during wakefulness after initial motor learning. Within micro-offline learning states, sequences of simple individual actions learned through interleaved practice are condensed into a unified skill through a time-dependent…

Jessica Samuolis – Journal of American College Health, 2025
Objective: The current study examined the extent to which pandemic-specific psychological distress symptoms and perceived stress were associated with sleep difficulties among college students. Participants: Participants included 203 full-time undergraduates from a medium-sized university located in the U.S. Methods: A survey was administered…

Dandan Ge; Jijun Yao; Shike Zhou – Psychology in the Schools, 2025
The problem of insufficient sleep is becoming increasingly common and affecting younger people. This study aims to explore the optimal amount of sleep conducive to the academic performance of primary and secondary school students and the heterogeneity of the positive effects. The 2020 Student Academic Quality Monitoring Project in Jiangsu province…

Julia Carbone; Susanne Diekelmann – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR) is a noninvasive tool to manipulate memory consolidation during sleep. TMR builds on the brain's natural processes of memory reactivation during sleep and aims to facilitate or bias these processes in a certain direction. The basis of this technique is the association of learning content with sensory cues, such…

Emma C. Woodford; Laurie K. McLay; Karyn G. France; Neville M. Blampied – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
Purpose: The prevalence of sleep difficulties among children with rare genetic neurodevelopmental conditions (RGNC) is high. Behavioral interventions are commonly used in the treatment of sleep difficulties in children with neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism, however, research is scarce in children with RGNC. The range of co-occurring…

Kamara, Dana; De Boeck, Paul; Lecavalier, Luc; Neuhaus, Emily; Beauchaine, Theodore P. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Studies of 16p11.2 copy number variants (CNVs) provide an avenue to identify mechanisms of impairment and develop targeted treatments for individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. 16p11.2 deletion and duplication phenotypes are currently being ascertained; however, sleep disturbances are minimally described. In this study, we examine sleep…

Xiaotian Dai; Gareth J. Williams; John A. Groeger; Gary Jones; Keeley Brookes; Wei Zhou; Jing Hua; Wenchong Du – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
Increasing evidence highlights the role of disrupted circadian rhythms in the neural dysfunctions and sleep disturbances observed in autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. However, the causality and directionality of these associations remain unclear. In this study, we employed a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian…

Dimitris I. Tsomokos; Elizabeth Halstead; Eirini Flouri – JCPP Advances, 2025
Background: Research has established a bidirectional association between sleep disturbances and depression in both adults and youth, as well as links between depression and circadian rhythms and chronotype, predominantly in adult populations. However, the link between chronotype and depression in the general adolescent population, independently of…

Palka Mittal; Sheetal Yadav; Abhishek Dadhich; Sheetal Kalra; Puneeta Ajmera – Health Education, 2025
Purpose: Sleep is crucial for cognitive functioning and memory consolidation. Existing literature shows a strong association between sleep deprivation and poor academic performance and a substantial increase in research publications in recent years. This manuscript identifies top contributors, key research themes, and emerging trends, and predicts…

Haoyun Zhao; Xiao Lin; Kai Yuan; Xiaoqing Hu; Xikai Wang; Waxun Su; Qiandong Wang; Lin Lu – npj Science of Learning, 2025
Sleep is instrumental in the formation of long-lasting memories, including social evaluations and social knowledge. The modification of social evaluations holds profound significance for understanding and shaping societal dynamics. Here, we investigated how sleep could contribute to updating the social evaluation of a person generally perceived as…
